A new release of coreutils, 8.24-3, has been uploaded, and will be
available soon from your favorite mirror.  This leaves 8.23-4 as the
previous version, and drops the broken 8.24-[12] releases.

NEWS:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
This is a new upstream release.  For upstream details, see
/usr/share/doc/coreutils/NEWS.  This build fixes a latent uninitialized
variable that broke behavior of 'cp -r' (the bug was also present in
8.23-4, but did not trigger there due to different stack contents).

This release is also the first stable release to provide the 'stdbuf'
utility, thanks to a patch from Yaakov.

If you missed the note in 8.23-2, there is no longer an 'su' program in
coreutils; this is an upstream decision (many Linux distros are getting
su from other packages, and even though cygwin's su had come from
coreutils, it was heavily patched and doesn't work as smoothly as on
Linux).  I'm still debating whether it is worth trying to capture the
last release of coreutils' su, as patched to work on cygwin, for
distribution as an independent package; help would be appreciated from
anyone else interested in this task.

If you encounter a regression, please report it here rather than
upstream.  See also the upstream documentation in /usr/share/doc/coreutils/.
